| Baila Ella Records – Not |
Michalina Włodarczyk (born 28 October 2003), known professionally as Bambi, is a Polish trapper and songwriter.
In 2018, Bambi appeared in the blind auditions for the inaugural season of The Voice Kids with the song "Sweet Creature" by Harry Styles. The song's performance resulted in 3 coaches' seats being turned around. She was invited to the teams of Tomson and Baron, Dawid Kwiatkowski and Edyta Górniak. Bambi chose Tomson and Baron. She did not make it to the live episodes, having been eliminated at the battle stage…
On 1 January 2023, Bambi signed a contract with Bailla Ella Records, which is owned by Young Leosia. On 10 February, she released her first full-fledged single under the BE banner entitled "IRL", which topped the Polish charts, resulting in a gold certificate 3 months after the premiere.

I honestly thought this was a parody album on first listen. Had to dig deeper than Wikipedia and translate some articles to learn this is straight up Polish pop, Rising Stars/Who's Got Talent division Bronze medalist stuff. Nothing I or probably anyone else on this site listens to.
But the music hit me like the first time I listened to Die Antwoord with the twist of being ultra-pop instead of anti-pop. The mixing and production on this album are as close to perfect as I can imagine. Speed rapping in Polish should be an Olympic event.
Srsly, I hate every style of song on this album but have never heard any of them performed or produced this well. Made me grin. Even the autotuning is enjoyably slick. I kept trying to dismiss this one but the longer I listened the more I noticed that every break, segué, opening and closing was perfect. Musical clichés set to 11 and performed/mixed at 110%.
